BRB, watching Justin Bieber's FIFA World Cup Final performance on repeat
Justin Bieber returned to one of the world's biggest stages on Sunday, performing during the FIFA World Cup Final halftime show at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
The pop superstar delivered a moving performance of "Everything Hallelujah," taking the stage in an oversized green polo shirt while strumming his guitar for a stripped-back, emotional set.
Bieber was one of several high-profile artists featured in the FIFA World Cup Final halftime show, joining Madonna, Shakira, BTS, Burna Boy, Gustavo Dudamel, the PS22 Chorus with Coldplay, and appearances by Sesame Street characters and the Muppets.
The performance also supported the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, an initiative that aims to expand access to quality education and football for children around the world. Bieber announced his participation weeks before the event, helping draw attention to the campaign ahead of the tournament's biggest match.
The FIFA World Cup Final performance marks another major appearance in Bieber's return to live performances. After stepping back from touring, he has taken the stage at several high-profile events, including the Grammy Awards, where he performed "Yukon" from his 2025 album Swag, and back-to-back headline sets at Coachella featuring music from Swag and Swag II.
It's so good to see him enjoy performing again!
